For the sake of order and understanding all previous posts regarding moderation will be listed below. It would be nice to have all ongoing discussion in this one central post that I'm speaking in right now. I will chime everyone that has expressed actual interest in actual discussion.
The goal is to have community consensus to the best ability regarding a new mod to be active, I have reached out in modmail and PM'd Clem so they are aware if they are in fact currently around.
I'm requesting to be mod and am open to questions in that regard. For those that don't know me, I've been here since this community was created via an invite from the original mod, Axolotl Peyotl and have been active the last 5 years. I would hope my reputation has shown it's own proof that I care for this community and members, if not, I am willing to provide assurances to any concerns.
Here are the posts that (I'm aware) currently relate to this topic:

If you’re throwing your hat in the ring, it’d be nice to know what you consider the viable scope of conversation on this board. There are already some “soft” scope restrictions that previous mods have enforced. Will you retain those? Examples include banning discussion of Q-LARP (because it’s a proven hoax and because it has its own board) and “joke” topics that poison the well.
It’s hard to get a feel for what the community does and does not support because the entire website is dying and the user base has been decimated.
The community has previously voted to see if some topics shouldn't be allowed and lost the popular vote, I don't have plans to make certain subjects off limits, though it's been expressed to monitor forum sliding and shilling, which I agree with.
I don't think it's dying.
It’s indisputable that this place has less than 1/10th the population it once had - that’s the dictionary definition of “decimated”
It’s practically in the grave at this point
Admin just said hes going to keep hiding this place from Trending, and hasnt done anything about the pictures of dragon cum and videos of non-whites blowing each others brains out, which currently appear on Trending with no issues
R.I.P.
Actually the dictionary definition is 10% loss, decimation was the practice to kill a soldier out of ten as punishment for insubordination. Funny it's meaning was completely inverted
Huh, interesting, I always thought it was killing 9/10 guys and leaving the last one alive to spread fear or something
Next you’ll be telling me that Dewy Decimal wasn’t the guy who invented the concept of the library
